scarps

Eskarpen {pl}

• Lobate scarps are widely distributed over Mercury The lobate scarps typically transect smooth plains materials (early Calorian age) on the floors of craters, but post-Caloris craters are superposed on them.
• Fault scarps may be only a few centimeters or many meters high.
• Scarps in the central and southern part of the crater enclose an area that is at a lower elevation than the rest of the crater. The scarps extend to the south out of the crater.
• Collapsed impact basins are thought to form concentric and radial scarps.
• Fault scarps known as the Suyukou scarps were discovered along the trace of the East Helanshan Fault preserved in alluvial fans for 16.5 km.

• Numerous fault scarps and offset stream channels were reported as a result of surface ruptures.
• The Little Wambaw Swamp drains north through a gap in the Awendaw Scarp into the Wambaw Swamp proper, which is contained between the Awendaw and Cainhoy Scarps on the Pamlico Terrace.
• The rugged terrain includes ridges, pointed peaks, sugar loaf mountains and scarps with slopes of up to 75 degrees.
• The conspicuous scarps on the plateau have massive sandstone caps over easily weathered rock such as shale.
• Around the sides and top of the hill are several scarps which may be medieval strip lynchets.

• As Mercury's interior cooled, it contracted and its surface began to deform, creating wrinkle ridges and lobate scarps associated with thrust faults.
• The earthquake remains as one of the best examples ever for evidence of creating fault scarps along the west side of the Tobin Range.
• The period of tectonic adjustment of the mercurian lithosphere lasted at least through the time of formation of smooth plains material; c4 craters that formed during this period are cut by scarps and are superposed on them.
